Nicole Kidman totes $8,500 Chanel bag in NYC after revealing she learned how to perform a real autopsy
Nicole Kidman shielded herself with an umbrella as she made her way out of the rain and inside a luxury five-star hotel in Midtown Manhattan on Tuesday.
The 58-year-old Oscar winner wore a black button-up blazer, matching baggy trousers and boots while toting a dark-brown, $8,500 Chanel SS/26 ‘Maxi Shopping Bag’ made from calfskin.
Kidman covered her suspiciously-unlined alabaster complexion with dark cat-eye sunglasses, but her wavy blonde mane showed no signs of being caught in the drizzly winter weather.
The Hawaiian-born Australian’s street sighting came hours after she revealed she learned how to perform a real autopsy while preparing to play forensic pathologist in Amazon Prime Video series Scarpetta.
‘I can do an autopsy. I can! Yeah, I can. Yes, if I needed to, I could do the autopsy. I can remove all the organs. I can name them all,’ Kidman said on NBC’s The Tonight Show.
‘I can remove the lungs and the liver and the gallbladder and the intestines.’

When host Jimmy Fallon asked the AMC Theaters brand ambassador how she learned, she replied: ‘Because it’s part of the job. And I worked with an incredible medical examiner, and I studied him.’
The Office of the State Chief Medical Examiner in Nashville, TN – where Kidman shot Scarpetta – actually offers a free death certification training course online.
‘The Method’ actress produced and starred as Dr. Kay Scarpetta in the eight-episode serial killer whodunit, which premieres March 11 on Prime.
‘It’s a medical examiner who is coming back to her job after 30 years, and there’s a parallel story of the two crimes that have happened in present day and 30 years ago,’ Kidman said.
‘That’s the beginning, and then there’s all the family drama. If you like crime thrillers, which there is a ton of people out there who like crime…’
Creator Liz Sarnoff’s small-screen adaptation of Patricia Cornwell’s bestselling book series also features Jamie Lee Curtis, Ariana DeBose, Bobby Cannavale, Simon Baker and Sosie Bacon.
One topic Fallon stood clear from was the Vogue World catwalker’s divorce from her second husband Keith Urban, which was finalized on January 6 after 19 years of marriage.
The perpetually-touring 58-year-old singer will reportedly spend 59 days with their daughters Sunday, 17, and Faith, 15, in 2026 while Kidman is considered a ‘primary residential parent’ with 306 days of custody.
Urban was said to have planned a lavish vacation in the Bahamas with his girls for ‘early March’ when they’re on school break.

‘He’d love for Nicole to join them, but she’s still very hurt, so he’s had to accept that’s not likely,’ a source told Radar Online on Tuesday.
‘He’s putting his focus on the girls. He knows he has some things to explain to them and he wants to make sure they know he’s just as devoted to them as he’s always been.’
The Moulin Rouge alum previously adopted two children – daughter Isabella, 33, and son Connor, 31 – during her decade-long marriage to ex-husband Tom Cruise, which ended in 2001.
Last year, Kidman wrapped her role as witch Gillian Owens opposite Sandra Bullock on the England set of Warner Bros. Pictures’ Practical Magic 2 following a two-month shoot.
